Looking to go in as Bio major, in-state, African American (my parents are from overseas but i was born here), I’m also Muslim, homeschooled as well

SAT: 1330 and 16 essay (didn’t want to take it but parents forced me)

GPA: 3.68

I’m taught by 3 teachers, one of which has an Ed.D, I also take classes at a local college. Had a rough time sophomore year when I first started but since then I’ve been getting A’s and B’s and I’m on track for an A in the class that i am currently taking (5 classes in total).

Letters of Rec: one from my bio prof whose class i got an A in and then another from a community leader that I’ve known for basically my whole life. Also had my teacher with the Ed.D write a counselor statement vouching for me

ECs: Horseback riding for all 4 years, Competitive basketball with a local team during sophomore and junior year, studied a form of martial arts from freshman until junior, volunteering at a clinic that provides free health care for all 4 years, volunteering at my local religious Sunday school (senior),volunteered at a hospital last summer, studied Arabic for the past 7-8 years (can read and write), going to present a research paper in Jan at a local university ,started a charity foundation with my brother where we send over clothes and other supplies biyearly to our parents home country of Sierra Leone.

Essays: very confident that they are good, had alot of people look over them, wrote about how i took a trip to my parents home country and how seeing the poverty changed me and the steps im taking/took to help alleviate it both here and overseas

My brother is also an alumni from UNC which makes me a sibling legacy. My father also works as a doctor and occasionally lets students from UNC’s med school work with him.
